Blimey, that was an epic post.

Still no information as to who decided to remove them, so we can ask that person when they're coming back.

Or even enquire of them if the 'experiment' has worked, and there's now no longer a problem, caused by people drinking in our town centre.

Anyway, cheers Ken, as you say, you're a busy man, but thanks for trying.

Though it seems a bit pointless, as you apparently don't know who the, quote, 'joint decision makers' were.

I'm sure I'll do my twice weekly shop, health permitting, in Accrington again, when someone tells me the benches have been returned, at this yet unspecified future date.

In the meantime I'll continue shopping in neighbouring towns.

Which so far have all luckily had welcome benches....of which there seems to be no charge to use them, despite what you posted about some of our neigbours charging a fee to park your arse on 'em.
